The list of “OVS veterans” was headed by Andrey Nikolaev, General Director of Optic fiber Systems JSC, who turned a new page in the company’s history. It was he, who in 2013, began the construction of the plant and the formation of a team of specialists for the first and only optical fiber enterprise in Russia.

The official opening of the plant was held in September 2015, and commercial production and sales of products began in October 2016. The company's employees managed to master unique competencies that are constantly improved. Specialists with extensive work experience pass on their experience to young staff, which means the company’s history continues.

In his speech, Andrey Nikolaev expressed gratitude to the employees who stood at the origins of the company for their conscientious work and significant contribution to the development of the enterprise.

“We would like to express our sincere gratitude and say: we are proud to have you as part of our team. Your example and dedication to our constant principles – commitment and competence serve as an inspiration for us all to strive for high standards and achievements. We believe that this new award will motivate our employees to continue their professional development and strive for new heights,” the company’s general director noted in his congratulatory speech.

An honorary badge for 10 years of work is a symbol of dedication and high professional competence, representing the contribution and work of each employee. From this year on, such an award will be given to each employee who reaches the 10th anniversary of work at the enterprise.
